Not surprised to see Nat Geo being removed from NOW as it was only a matter of time. Good to see Alibi added as that was always a rather obvious omission.

So from the end of the month, NOW Entertainment will include...

2 entertainment channels from UKTV:
- GOLD
- Alibi

2 entertainment channels from Paramount:
- MTV
- Comedy Central

12 channels from Sky:
- Sky Showcase
- Sky Witness
- Sky Atlantic
- Sky Max
- Sky Comedy
- Sky Sci-Fi
- Sky Crime
- Sky Documentaries
- Sky Nature
- Sky History
- Sky Arts
- Sky News

3 children's channels from Paramount:
- Nick
- Nick Jr
- Nicktoons

3 children's channels from Warner Bros Discovery:
- Cartoon Network
- Boomerang
- Cartoonito

+ NBC News NOW and content from Peacock, Pick and Challenge.

Is that everything?

I wonder for how long the Paramount channels will remain on Now once Paramount+ launches on 22 June.

Paramount content will likely be nonexclusive, in line with movie content.

SonicMaster is that list for NOW Entertainment everywhere, or just those who get NOW TV services via BT?

Why are they going to stop? Stories in the US say that the league is talking to ESPN, Fox, and Univision about additional non-exclusive packages, and that it is also looking at similar deals in Canada. No reason why they won't do that in other countries such as the UK later.

Channel 5 is showing Paramount+ original movie Halo on Wednesday night at 10pm

I’m sure there will be plenty of plugs for the new service on their channels over the coming months.

It's actually the first episode of the Paramount+ original series, so it acts as a little taste to get people interested enough to then subscribe to watch the rest. Might work quite well.

A streaming platform using a linear channel to showcase content. Never catch on...

The whole series I believe will be on Channel 5, but you will be able to view the first three episodes on Paramount + from the start.

A lot has changed in the last few weeks regarding this, don’t be surprised of this is old information as only 10 days ago Broadband TV News reported

‘ Premier Sports has also confirmed that LaLigaTV, the league’s 24/7 channel featuring all available live matches will continue to be available.’

It was set to leave Prime Channels as well and is staying now.
